Manual handover creation is time-intensive and error-prone
Manual handovers between Chartering and Operations teams are often unstructured, relying on fragmented emails, attachments, and informal communication.
Critical voyage details can be missed or misunderstood, leading to operational delays, execution gaps, and inconsistent workflows across teams.
Different vessel types, cargo categories, and operational requirements demand customised information. There’s no one-size-fits-all template that works for every situation.
Voyage Handover brings clarity, efficiency and consistency to this vital step in the voyage lifecycle.
How Marcura’s Voyage Handover tool works
Voyage Handover introduces a structured workflow that automatically ingests key documents and standardises information into a clear, actionable format.
The AI-powered tool generates customised handovers for both voyage charter and time charter operations, covering dry and tanker cargos with vessel-specific requirements.
All in under 60 seconds.
Voyage Handover can be embedded directly within existing workflows, including Sedna and Microsoft Outlook integration, so teams don’t need to change their established processes. Generate handovers with just three clicks or automate the process entirely within your existing email systems.
Key benefits
Improved accuracy and completeness
A structured handover template ensure all critical instructions, terms, and voyage details are consistently captured, reducing the risk of missed information.
Early visibility of potential risks
Built-in intelligence identifies conflicts between RECAP and Charter Party terms, allowing operators to spot and address issues before they impact execution.
Faster, more efficient workflows
Automatic ingestion of recaps, CPs, rider clauses, and vessel data reduces manual effort and eliminates the need for back-and-forth clarifications.
Better operational context
Integration with PortLog and Marcura Claims provides additional insights from previous similar voyages, helping teams make more informed decisions during execution.
The impact
Voyage Handover replaces fragmented, manual processes with a consistent and scalable workflow, helping teams execute voyages with greater confidence and efficiency.
